I tried the normal metformin with bad effects so doc tried the metformin SR but these didn't like me either. Doc thought that I might still have problems with them though so going back on Tuesday (not taking any medication at the moment and feel so much better) so concentrating on low carb from...

Is this normal to begin with? Just had eggs scrambled in butter and two hours later my bg's are higher than before. (Did have a cup of tea with no sugar not long before I tested as there is always one on my desk when I arrive at work). Is this normal? Was really hoping to have come down a...

Thank you Lucy :)

Thank you again. I will follow your advice

That's great, thank you

Doctor gave me a Nexus about a month ago as well as 50 strips. She said I could have more but probably not on the scale that I would like them so purchase an SD Codefree which arrived yesterday. Tested on both of them at the same time and they were 3 whole points apart. Tested this morning as...

Thanks for all your ideas. They are great. Didnt have time to make lunch this morning so had to go to garage and was pretty limited to be honest so ended up with a Ginsters tandoori chicken skewer and a Ginsters BBQ chicken chunks. Did manage to remember to pick up two cathedral city...

Welcome to the forum

Happy birthday Emma :)

You're right there Gezzabelle, lol.

Thanks. I used to make loads of soups but gotten really lazy. Must get my soup maker out again as cant remember the last time I used it.

I am really struggling to think of low carb lunches that I can take to work. Breakfast and dinner is no problem just lunch. I don't like salads or raw vegetables and can't stand yogurt. I really need to get to grips with lunches though as need to lower my blood sugars sooner rather than...
